Diane Nash: Leader and strategist of the 1960s Civil Rights Movement. A historian described her as: "…bright, focused, utterly fearless, with an unerring instinct for the correct tactical move at each increment of the crisis; as a leader, her instincts had been flawless, and she was the kind of person who pushed those around her to be at their best—that, or be gone from the movement."

Marlene Dumas. Yes, at first glance some of her art may seem disturbing, however remembering her interpretations....As in Art, Decisive acts intervene in a life. Altering a person's direction. Moving this way or that we enter into a moral void and feel the guilt of never knowing. Yet we risk all the more guilt by refraining from action. Being at too big a distance from the correctness of life."
